Derr Precision - Custom Guns
« on: January 21, 2025, 12:00:13 PM »
Real nice looking stuff.

Did a search for 1911 S70 finger collets and a number of forum postings came up.  One of which was by Greg Derr, Olympian and custom gunsmith.  He was just commenting that he had replaced a boat load of the finger collets with solid bushing and posted a picture of a necklace of the old collects.    Well DUH.   I email him if he'd part with a couple of those, so I could have a spare or two.  $15/ea.   Cool as some typical ebay prices were running $40+.

Anyway.  Really good eye candy.

I am not a fan of the engraved stuff.

Don't get me wrong I have more than a few les baers.  They are with out a doubt works of art and shoot better than I do.   Still no engravings on them.
I always break all the clay pigeons,  some times its even with lead.

My ex's favorite position was 68. I'd do her and she'd owe me 1. ;D I finally gave up hope of ever breaking even.

BTW, I turned 63 a little while ago. It was funny when I was talking to a customer service gal last week and she asked how old I was. She thought I sounded 50, if that. She also asked if I was married, etc. She sounded really interested in more than just customer service.

I was looking at Derr Precision last year, maybe earlier. I really like the looks of the Nitre Blue Pin Sets and Screw Sets for the 1911. I was going to post pics back then, but accidentally renamed every PNG file in my download folder the same thing, instead of renaming one pic. They're probably still there. I have 4,900 pics to sort through and delete most of them.

“Nitre By Nick” apprentice gunsmith Nicholas Derr is offering premium quality Nitre Blue Screw Sets for the 1911. The thin slot screws are hand polished and Nitre Blued to a beautiful bright blue. Each set consists of five screws at a cost of $25 including shipping. These will add elegance to any 1911.

Nick also offers 1911 Pin Sets in Nitre Blue. The pins are high-quality pieces manufactured by EGW- Evolution Gun Works. A five-pin set is $40 including shipping.

Save ten dollars by ordering both sets for $55 shipping included. You can order directly via email: info@derrprecision.com

I found some Derr Precision pics in my download folder. It looks like they all came from their Instagram page. If so, it's a good page.
